Certificate & Diploma in youth ministry

This course is of great value for Parish Youth Ministers, Lay and Religious School Chaplains. The course looks at a wide range of issues including youth culture and develops your practical youth work skills. It also seeks to provide a solid background to those wishing to reflect upon their existing youth ministry or who are contemplating becoming involved in it.

The meaning of Youth Work and Ministry is examined with reference to Scripture and recent Papal and Church teaching. Course participants are encouraged to develop their own spirituality and professionalism within their own setting.
